I think "Jeorge" has had his up to 118 before.  Never had mine past 90 - yet.

I hit 113 last Sat. on interstate. That was on the HUD speedo. The dash speedo was closer to 120.

I am guessing around 130 on my TGP, i had it burried nicely past 120, and the kids I had been between said they were up around 130

I was at 122 uphill, only safe road, but the tach was only at 4500, so it would probaly do 128.

My speedo is off by 10mph at 55mph so I'm going faster than it says. at 70mph I'm 15mph off.  the other day I went to 90mph before is got scary(both rear struts are bad) so I'd say I was doing 105 give or take a few.
car wasn't even at 4000rpm with o/d



every time I see a civic or other little car I laugh.

The transmission is designed not to shift into overdrive at wide open throttle, which is where the 128mph limit comes from. Its actually hitting the rev limiter in 3rd, not a speed cutoff.
